Tottenham youngster Mikey Moore is set to sign a new contract with the club in the next 24 hours.
That’s according to Fabrizio Romano who claims that the young forward has agreed to a new deal and is expected to sign a 3 year contract on Sunday.
He tweeted:
“Understand Mikey Moore will sign his new contract at Tottenham in the next 24 hours — it will happen on Sunday.”
“It’s gonna be a 3 year deal, decision has been made as called on Friday. Spurs keep one of their best talents.”

The contract will see the 15 year old move stay at the club till he’s 18 years old, and will sign a professional contract at 17.
This is a huge coup by Tottenham since Moore is extremely rated as perhaps their best player at the academy.
He is an attacker that plays mostly on the wide positions. He was a key player in the U17 and U18 team that won the Premier League Cups at youth level.
Tottenham have let go of many academy players that have gone on to become star players at other clubs. One such example is Marcus Edwards who has been one of Sporting Lisbon’s best players.
Perhaps having learned from their mistake, the club are doing their best to tie down the talented youngsters’ futures at the club.
Last month they announced the contract extension of Will Lankshear, another highly rated striker at the academy.
While Tottenham fans will be excited about this, it may not be the contract extension they were hoping for.
Their star striker Harry Kane’s future remains uncertain with only one year left in his contract and a lot of speculations regarding a move away from the club.
Fans will be hoping the England striker will stay at the club for at least another year if not more.
